Empowering Communities Through Financial Inclusion
At DGCCU, we are proud to be a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI). Since our founding in the 1950s, we have been devoted to making sure everyone in the community has access to financial services and credit as an instrument of economic development. We want to ensure that all members of our community can benefit from safe, affordable banking services.
Serving District Government Employees
We understand how important it is for district government employees to have access to secure banking products and services. To make sure these public servants have access to the banking solutions they need, we offer competitive rates, no monthly fees on certain accounts, and free ATMs at any bank location across the country.
Bringing Banking Services to Underserved Communities
At our company, we are committed to providing underserved communities with access to financial services and credit. We use data-driven insights and analytics technology so that communities that need it most can benefit from affordable banking options. This allows us to better meet their needs and offer them the best possible financial solutions.
The Impact Of Their Work
The impact that CDBA has had on low- and moderate-income communities across the US cannot be overstated – especially in recent years. According to their website, “Since 2017 alone, community development banks have made more than $3 billion in loans directly into these neighborhoods” which has enabled them “to create more jobs, increase home ownership rates, expand small business ownership opportunities…and invest in other vital infrastructure projects” throughout those same areas. This work is not only having positive effects today but will continue into tomorrow by increasing access to financial resources within underserved areas leading to increased economic activity down the line.
Serving the Latino Community & Immigrants
It is essential for all people within a community—including immigrants—to have access to financial tools and resources. That’s why at our company, we focus on developing products specifically tailored for immigrants who need help getting started with banking in their new country. We also provide bilingual customer service representatives and online resources so that immigrants feel supported as they transition into life in a new country.
At our company, we are passionate about creating equal access to quality financial products and services for everyone in our community—especially those who may not have had access before now. We strive every day towards fulfilling our mission of empowering everyone—regardless of background or language—through responsible lending practices and innovative financial solutions tailored specifically for their needs. As Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI), we are proud of what we do every day: serving district government employees, bringing banking services to underserved communities, and empowering the Latino community & immigrants through lending opportunities designed just for them!
